Message: [QUOTE="jostar1, post: 1746860, member: 1737"] Saw this on the Cincy board: Big 12 commish is on Mike and Mike this morning. If anyone is able to listen and recap for the rest of us it owuld be appreciated. I didn't hear the whole thing. They started by talking about the popularity of college football and future rule changes. Expansion was sandwiched between these topics and the Baylor scandal. Pretty much more of the same - the conference likes its current setup of round robin and currently enjoys its size and is competitive but hasn't won a football or basketball championship in a while. Also acknowledged that they don't have a network and have the LHN. At this point, it's a matter of deciding two or four and the best fit based on athletics, market size, etc. [B]He did acknowledge that geography isn't as important now as it was previously and the conference was more concerned about the "electric" footprint instead with televisions and viewership.
